PARIS – Princess Charlene of Monaco says she’s recovering in hospital after having given birth to royal baby twins prematurely by Cesarean section last week.
The South Africa-born new mother of two has given her first interviews to French media since the Dec. 10 births that captivated the tiny principality.
Charlene, 36, said she is “a little tired but we’re all very well thank you,” despite having given birth two weeks early.
She says she hopes to show off hereditary heir Prince Jacques and his older sister — by 2 minutes — Gabriella to the world at the beginning of next week, and hopes to be out of hospital in time to celebrate Christmas with her husband, Prince Albert.
Albert is the son of the late Hollywood star-turned princess, Grace of Monaco.
